1. Welcome to Diamond Cut Version DC7.

It offers a wide range of new features an d performance enhancements which will improve the results of your audio editing, restoration and forensics surveillance work. It is also faster and easier to u se than earlier versions. As an example, try out the new EZ Clean Filter first. 2. Diamond Cut offers you two choices of editing methods. Choose between the cl assic Source and Destination mode and the Fast-Edit mode for greased-lightening editing speed. 3. To see what revision of Diamond Cut DC7 that you are running, click on Help>A bout. Make sure that you are up to date by occasionally checking at www.diamond cut.com. 4. In order to minimize the production of digital artifacts by the Continuous No ise Filter, out-of-band noise should be removed first by using the Brick Wall Ba ndpass filter. 5. The Artifact Suppression mode can be used to further minimize the production of digital artifacts when removing in-band noise. 6. The Artifact Suppression mode can also be used to reduce intermodulation dist ortion from a recording. Intermodulation distortion is a "raspy" sound unlike t he more pleasant sounding Harmonic distortion. 7. If you are hearing distortion being produced by the either the Expert Impulse Filter or the EZ Impulse filter on Brass instruments or up front vocals, try tu rning on the Solo/Brass mode. That should suppress that type of distortion prod uction by these filters. 8. The DC Tune Library can catalog an almost unlimited number of audio files in the .wav, MP3 or WMA formats. 9. The DC Tune Library search engine function will provide almost instant access to any sound file contained within the library after the database has been crea ted. 10. Harmonic enhancement can be produced on noisy files by using the Hi-Noise fu nction in the Virtual Valve Amplifier. Hi-Noise Mode will suppress the elevatio n of the noise floor while still synthesizing harmonic overtones to be added ont o your sound files. 11. Descriptive presets in the EZ Enhancer make it easy to obtain great post pro cessing results without the fuss of dealing with multiple effects in the multifi lter. 12. You can change the Pitch of a sound file while holding its cadence or beat c onstant with the Pitch shifter found in the Stretch and Squish Effect. 13. The Virtual Phono Preamplifier provides you with a very simple way to implem ent or reverse the various EQ curves associated with phonograph records. It can be used with an RIAA or a Flat Preamplifier front end hardware scheme. 14. Your Diamond Cut CD Burner is compatible with WLS, XML and M3U playlist form ats. 15. You can create playlists for the CD Burner from your Diamond Cut DC Tunes Li brary via simple drag and drop windows maneuvers. 16. Narrow pulse width crackle can be attenuated or eliminated by using the Diam ond Cut Narrow crackle filter found under the Filter Menu.

17. You can listen to what is being removed by the Median and Averaging filters by turning on their "Keep Residue" modes. 18.

This will replace track numbers with actual track names. 24. If you do not want to Normalize the gain of an audio file to 0 dB, you can n ormalize it to a smaller or larger value by using the Normalized Gain Scaling fe ature found under the CD Prep Menu. Gain Normalizing to greater than 0 dB will produce some clipping which may be desirable in some instances. 25. Your Diamond Cut Spectrum Analyzer can resolve frequencies with increments a s small as 0.02 Hz when it is set for 65,536 FFT's. 26. Markers can be labeled with descriptive text via the Mark Labels function fo und under the Marker menu. 27. You can create ultrasonic waves using the make waves generator with frequenc ies up to 100 KHz and sampling rates over 200 KHz provided your sound card suppo rts those ranges. 28. You can create subsonic waves using the make waves generator with frequencie s as low as 0.01 Hz and sampling rates as low as 100 Hz provided your sound card can support those values. 29. The Bass and Treble tone controls found in the EZ Enhancer and the Virtual P reamplifier are of the shelving variety. 30. Your multifilter can hold up to 20 filters and/or effects along with all of their settings as a single preset. 31. A Stanton 500 RIAA curve corrector is provided as a preset under the multifi lter which not only realizes the RIAA curve by way of a flat preamplifier, but a lso accounts for the frequency non-linearity of the phono cartridge. 32. A free users Forum is available to all users of Diamond Cut software and is located at: http://www.diamondcut.com/vforum/index.php? 33.
